Tried out the paperwallet and sent 1 ether to the address on the screen as a test.
After that I noticed the private key on it is blurred out. I generated another and found the same thing on the second. How to access my ether if the private key is blurred out?
When you mouseover the blurred private key code, the QR code sharpens (helps with security preventing shoulder-surfing, it seems). And if you print the page, the CSS of the page modifies itself to un-blur it when printed.
Same thing with the text representation of the private key; it's normally shown as a line of asterisks, but if you hover your mouse over it, it becomes the real hex key.
